LACROSSE TEAM OPENS SEASON WITH SHOW OF STRENGTH

Two commanding victories and a Centennial Conference Player of the Week Award for team captain Jen Lam '06 opened a promising season for the Bryn Mawr Lacrosse team.

On March 4, the Owls kicked off the season by torching nonconference opponent North Carolina Wesleyan, 13-8, to improve to 1-0. Lam, the Owls' leading scorer in 2005, began the 2006 campaign in impressive fashion, racking up a team-best four goals. (See full story)

The team's second game, during Spring Break, further established the team's bright prospects with an 11-0 shutout against California's Whittier College at Whittier's Donald Graham Field. By nearly midnight Eastern Standard Time, Lam had scored five goals and Greta Flaherty '08 and Moriah Scott '08 had both racked up three scores as Bryn Mawr stayed unbeaten at 2-0 in the young season.
